Turtle Waxs' Chrome Polish, It is so extremely easy to use, put it on and take it off with minimal rubbing. Leaves chrome look like a mirror. Thanks for the comments all!!

Re: Showing off some fresh Zaino...

I don't like chrome much at all. But it works very well with your truck. Both the wheels and paint look great.

God, I wish they were Vette brakes but they are not, they are the cheapo rotors off of eBay. But they look great nonetheless which is what I was going for. I got them from Irotors if you are curious.

Looks great! Nothing better than Zaino products IMO. Everything is easy to apply.

Re: Showing off some fresh Zaino...

Did you use ZFX or Z-ZIO before applying the wax? Their website says that you need to, but I was wondering if people really do for their daily drivers? I am looking into getting the z-5 after seeing what it did to your black paint, but if I have to use one of those other products, then I will not be able to afford to use this stuff.

Re: Showing off some fresh Zaino...

^^I never bothered using it. I emailed Sal Zaino asking him if it was a necessity and he said no. But, you should watch your car with some Dawn soap before starting to strip all of your previous waxes.

Oh, BTW, your Blazer looks great!

Re: Showing off some fresh Zaino...

hey thanks man. Yeah, Z-5 is absolutely amazing. Look at the spider webbing before you do it and then look at it afterwards, the difference is day and night. It is great stuff. I also recommended the tire shine, if you got the money. I dont know what kind of wheels or tires you have but if you have low profile tires then the bottle will last about a year. And the shine lasts for weeks.

For polished aluminum I always use Mothers Aluminum Polish. I have a powerball and just smear some on the powerball and work it in. You have to be patient though but they will come out great. As you can see in the reflection of the first picture, that is my dad's '94 Toyota that I do it on. And thanks for the comments man. I only detail my families vehicles, but this summer I am planning on advertising to try to make some mula. Good luck man.
